(b). In 200203, the factory has received an order for a number of jobs. It is estimated that the direct materials would be Rs. 12,00,000 and direct labour would cost Rs. 7,50,000. What would be the price for these jobs if the factory intends to earn the same rate of profit on sales, assuming that the selling and distribution overhead has gone up by 15%.
